Green party leader Elizabeth May took her message to Ottawa businesses yesterday saying that climate change must be addressed immediately.
Speaking before a crowd of about 100 people at an Ottawa Chamber of Commerce breakfast, Ms. May said the climate has changed drastically since the Industrial Revolution and that a massive amount of carbon dioxide now resides in the atmosphere.
She said we are in the middle of an "atmospheric crisis," and claimed if business does not do its part to reduce emissions of greenhouse gasses it could end up costing the economy "trillions" to fix later.
"We are addicted to fossil fuels. We have portrayed them as if they are cheap and abundant," she said.
"How do we have a whole societal shift? We want to put Canada and every other nation on a sustainable path. It (climate change) is not just bad for the environment, it's bad for business."
She pointed out several Ottawa companies that are doing their part to cut back on polluting while continuing to operate competitive businesses.
Ms. May cited Hillary's Dry Cleaning, which captures toxic gases used to clean clothes and recycles them, as an example. She also pointed to Appleseed Organic Lawn Care and Bridgehead Coffee, which specializes in fair trade and organically grown coffee beans.
"We need to rethink our business models to be more like an ecosystem," said Ms. May.
